Acerca de esta escucha
In this fresh, fast-paced modern murder mystery—the first in a wildly funny and inventive new series—a ghostwriter is chosen to collaborate on a presidential candidate’s memoir, only to discover just how much trouble a smart woman with time on her hands can get up to …
“I tell other people’s stories for a living. … I’ve always been a snoop where other people are concerned, and I discovered in my late twenties I have a knack for spinning tales about them, and for making these tales sing.”
It’s a dream assignment. Former Senator Dorothy Gibson, aka that woman, is the most talked-about person in the country right now, though largely for the wrong reasons. As an independent candidate for President of the United States, Dorothy split the vote and is being blamed for the shocking result. After her very public defeat, she’s retreated to her home in rural Maine, inviting her ghostwriter to join her.
Her collaborator is impressed by Dorothy’s work ethic and steel-trap mind, not to mention the stunning surroundings (and one particularly gorgeous bodyguard). But when a neighbor dies under suspicious circumstances, Dorothy is determined to find the killer in their midst.
And when Dorothy Gibson asks if you want to team up for a top secret, possibly dangerous murder investigation, the only answer is: “Of course!” The best ghostwriters are adept at asking questions and spinning stories … two talents, it turns out, that come in handy for sleuthing. Dorothy’s political career, meanwhile, has made her an expert at recognizing lies and double-dealing. Working together, the two women are soon untangling motives and whittling down suspects, to the exasperation of local police. But this investigation—much like the election—may not unfold the way anyone expects …

Historia
Summer, 2021. Nell has come home at her family's insistence to celebrate an anniversary. Fifty years ago, her father wrote The Golden Bones. Part picture book, part treasure hunt, Sir Frank Churcher created a fairy story about Elinore, a murdered woman whose skeleton was scattered all over England. Clues and puzzles in the pages of The Golden Bones led readers to seven sites where jewels were buried—gold and precious stones, each a different part of a skeleton. One by one, the tiny golden bones were dug up until only Elinore's pelvis remained hidden.

What they don't see—or choose to ignore—is the brutal underbelly of the Nazi movement, which considers Munich its spiritual home. When a high-born English girl is murdered, Detective Sebastian Wolff is ordered to solve the crime. Wolff is already walking a tight line between doing his job and falling foul of the political party he abhors. Now Hitler is taking a personal interest in the case.

Pity he can't say the same about that nagging lack of direction in his life. If only he were like his best friend Freddie—self-assured, suave, and up to his ears in secrets. But when Freddie is murdered, Rex doubts the verdict. Was Freddie really cut down while up to no good, or was he killed in the line of duty?

This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Historia
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Summer, 2021. Nell has come home at her family's insistence to celebrate an anniversary. Fifty years ago, her father wrote The Golden Bones. Part picture book, part treasure hunt, Sir Frank Churcher created a fairy story about Elinore, a murdered woman whose skeleton was scattered all over England. Clues and puzzles in the pages of The Golden Bones led readers to seven sites where jewels were buried—gold and precious stones, each a different part of a skeleton. One by one, the tiny golden bones were dug up until only Elinore's pelvis remained hidden.

The day my path crossed with Simon Fox I thought I’d already lost everything, but then he almost ran me off the road with his flash car and belittling jibes. The men in my life had undermined me for too long. Enough was enough. Fuelled by alcohol and the desire to get even, I decided a spot of petty vandalism would make me feel a whole lot better. Wrong. Very wrong. I hadn’t realised that Simon Fox was not a man to be messed with.

Excellent read! Really drew me in and I love how it played in various ways with the conventional murder mystery and especially tropes of golden age work.

Torn on how to rate this one
The performance is stellar. Eva Kaminsky is one of the best narrators I've ever listened to ever. She made the story come to life with absolutely perfect representation for each character. I will purposely seek out books narrated by her.
The Author is an excellent writer: witty, sassy, snarky and fun. The author obviously pulled in the current political climate into the story but handled it without being preachy or giving too much attention positive or negative to either side. That was done masterfully.
Here's what was a bit lacking for me:
1. You really have to suspended your disbelief. That's okay, I'm able to do that, but it's a push and an obstacle that needs to be overcome over and over and over and more and more as the story goes on encompassing every facet of the story.
2. The political line: While the author really walks a tight rope with the politics involved in the story and handled it very well by pretty much making all sides look bad, I still would rather not have politics involved at all. That's my personal preference. I'm just worn out by it all.
3. The ending. To be honest, I'm not completely sure what actually happened. I'm more than a bit confused. I'll leave it at that so as not to spoil it.

Disappointed
Obviously launched from reality— a woman loses the Presidential race to a man vaguely described as awful, incompetent, a nightmare. She retreats to a cabin in the north, hires a ghostwriter, and then together they solve a murder. Prose is competent, but ending disappointing. New info half-revealed about narrator’s past torpedoes her budding relationship with a security guard (which seemed kinda junior high and extraneous all along) but sets up possible sequel.

The narration, the story telling, the characters… it’s all so well done! Plus I’ve known (of) Kemper for a while now thanks to his podcast (All About Agatha (Christie)) so, naturally, I loved that, and it makes sense that I’d love this, too!

Enjoy fun, escapist fiction without feeling stupid!
The plot is far-fetched, consistent with the genre, yet offers insightful observations about human nature, clever asides, and a sense of hopefulness about women’s capacity to right the wrongs of the world.

AWFUL
I can’t understand the positive reviews, which is the reason I bought. A presidential candidate that just lost and her author, solving a murder. It’s ridiculous

Boring!
Perhaps it was the Hillary/Dorothy connection that ruined it for me. I don't like books that have political leanings regardless of side the author takes. In this day and age I want total escape. Nothing witty about the dialogue and the romance appeared to be written for a YA audience. The crime and conclusion were not at all like Christie to me. I fell for all the five star reviews.. This book was purchased on sale and could not be returned. Fortunately, I like the narrator.
